Re: Assembly2 assembly meshing of boolion unioned parts min size .1 in or .05" in never seems to finish windows shows no

The four electric motors are on the end of the two forward most stalks then two tubes are for the main wings then the stalks behind the wings and two tubes are for the tail. I was considering some kind of foam from wecutfoam.com flying foam has been down. But once the structure is tested to handle t...

Well why won't my model simulate? if your tutorial is on simulating forces on a model? I would like to try cfd workbench that looks good. But wouldn't I need to have the skeleton work? I am new to design of something like this so I do not have a checklist. According to your FEM help-request in this ...

I do not have much experience making model airplanes and the large size is to test myles loyds crosswind kite power calculations as a technical curiosity. But I also don't know if the foam over the carbon fiber poles would be strong enough or fold. That is why to try this cost effectivly on a projec...

yes it is 5220mm or 204" inches. there would probably need to be 48" in segments instead of 98 as max size so it could screw apart and go in my car. :lol:

Hi I got factory specs that could go into kicad fem. I figured it would help even if I tried a hand calculation. density ~1700 kg/m^3 modulus ~34 Msi (~230 GPa) poisson ration 0.2 or higher m Good Morning Joshua, Thank you for your email. We appreciate your interest in DragonPlate. Without knowing w...

:D :lol: I have been reading the papers on cross wind kite power systems. I found my 3d robotics drone kit was fun. The pixhawk mini px4 has a VTOL plane configuration so I wanted to mount 4 motors on the 24" .5" tubes the carbon fiber props for drones I seen the largest were 30". Dra...

Re: Assembly2 assembly meshing of boolion unioned parts min size .1 in or .05" in never seems to finish windows shows no

The force on other systems is 3100 newtons.

1/16 of that 194 newtons

and 620 newtons would be tests I would wonder how the tubes would be effected.

the material properties would be
density
460 kg/mm^3
youngs model 34000000 psi
poisson ratio 0.20

How would I do the hand calculations?
